DALPHIN: Benchmarking Digital Pathology AI Copilots Against Pathologists on an Open Multicentric Dataset

Foundation models with visual question answering capabilities for digital pathology are emerging. Such unprecedented technology requires independent benchmarking to assess its potential in assisting pathologists in routine diagnostics. We created DALPHIN, the first multicentric open benchmark for pathology AI copilots, comprising 1236 images from 300 cases, spanning 130 rare to common diagnoses, 6 countries, and 14 subspecialties. The DALPHIN design and dataset are introduced alongside a human performance benchmark of 31 pathologists from 10 countries with varying expertise. We report results for two general-purpose (GPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro) and one pathology-specific copilot (PathChat+) for sequential and independent answer generation. We observed no statistically significant difference from expert-level performance in four of six tasks for PathChat, 2/6 tasks for Gemini, and 1/6 tasks for GPT. DALPHIN is publicly released with sequestered, indirectly accessible ground truth to foster robust and enduring benchmarking. Data, methods, and the evaluation platform are accessible through dalphin.grand-challenge.org.

Automated Detection of Cribriform Growth Patterns in Prostate Histology Images

Cribriform growth patterns in prostate carcinoma are associated with poor prognosis. We aimed to introduce a deep learning method to detect such patterns automatically. To do so, convolutional neural network was trained to detect cribriform growth patterns on 128 prostate needle biopsies. Ensemble learning taking into account other tumor growth patterns during training was used to cope with heterogeneous and limited tumor tissue occurrences. ROC and FROC analyses were applied to assess network performance regarding detection of biopsies harboring cribriform growth pattern. The ROC analysis yielded a mean area under the curve up to 0.81. FROC analysis demonstrated a sensitivity of 0.9 for regions larger than 0.0150 mm2 with on average 7.5 false positives. To benchmark method performance for intra-observer annotation variability, false positive and negative detections were re-evaluated by the pathologists. Pathologists considered 9% of the false positive regions as cribriform, and 11% as possibly cribriform; 44% of the false negative regions were not annotated as cribriform. As a final experiment, the network was also applied on a dataset of 60 biopsy regions annotated by 23 pathologists. With the cut-off reaching highest sensitivity, all images annotated as cribriform by at least 7/23 of the pathologists, were all detected as cribriform by the network and 9/60 of the images were detected as cribriform whereas no pathologist labelled them as such. In conclusion, the proposed deep learning method has high sensitivity for detecting cribriform growth patterns at the expense of a limited number of false positives. It can detect cribriform regions that are labelled as such by at least a minority of pathologists. Therefore, it could assist clinical decision making by suggesting suspicious regions.

Differential diagnosis and molecular stratification of gastrointestinal stromal tumors on CT images using a radiomics approach

Distinguishing gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) from other intra-abdominal tumors and GISTs molecular analysis is necessary for treatment planning, but challenging due to its rarity. The aim of this study was to evaluate radiomics for distinguishing GISTs from other intra-abdominal tumors, and in GISTs, predict the c-KIT, PDGFRA,BRAF mutational status and mitotic index (MI). All 247 included patients (125 GISTS, 122 non-GISTs) underwent a contrast-enhanced venous phase CT. The GIST vs. non-GIST radiomics model, including imaging, age, sex and location, had a mean area under the curve (AUC) of 0.82. Three radiologists had an AUC of 0.69, 0.76, and 0.84, respectively. The radiomics model had an AUC of 0.52 for c-KIT, 0.56 for c-KIT exon 11, and 0.52 for the MI. Hence, our radiomics model was able to distinguish GIST from non-GISTS with a performance similar to three radiologists, but was not able to predict the c-KIT mutation or MI.
